I really like that desk..

Great car, kinda shitty article. You start off by saying that this is a track focused car, and if you don’t use this on the track you’re an idiot, and then complain about the quality of the buttons? This isn’t a luxury car. This is a track beast. You then compare it to other fancy cars, that are slower, and say that…

I was waiting for this comment. I have 3 new G5's sitting on my desk right now, and they use the exact same design language. Dell is redefining the gaming aesthetic, not just their Alienware sub-brand.

It’s useful enough for me. I have a couple smart outlets linked to it that control the lamps downstairs. Our house is a split level, so if I were to turn off the lights to go to bed, we would have to navigate our living room and at least one half-flight of stairs in the dark. It’s easier and safer to just leave the…

It sounds like a mix between an SLS AMG and a particularly smooth Harley.

I always thought my old Mk4 Jetta smelled like what I imagined a Crayola crayon factory smelled like. In a good way.

FPV drones are insane. I’ve been thinking of building one for a while. 

$400/YEAR?! Yeah, no. It’s $400 every 40k miles at the dealer, or $100 if you do it yourself. 

You’ll love the DSG.

Most people don’t buy with cash, and that’s not what this is about. This is about idiot customers buying out of their price range. If you fuck yourself over by taking an 84 month loan to get your top of the line Grand Cherokee for a monthly payment you can justify, that’s on you. Or, you lower your standards because…

How do you like the COBB? I’ve been thinking about getting one, but scared for warranty reasons. I had a MK4 Jetta 1.8T in the past, so I dream in check engine lights.

I have a 1996 XJ for sale if you’re interested =]

Yup. I have a measly 100 shares of it right now, but anything over $0.05 is profit for me. $1000/share would be nice.

Or like I do at work, one normal 16:9 monitor on the left, and an ultrawide on the right. Best of both worlds.

When you turn the wheel, a hydraulic pump is pumping hydraulic fluid to your steering rack to make it push your tie rods, which makes your wheels turn. Once you get to full lock, your wheels can’t turn anymore because the steering rack is at it’s maximum, but the pump is still trying to pump fluid. This overloads your…

Your front diff has a half shaft going to each wheel. Since the diff is off to one side, the shafts are not the same length. Since each shaft is made of metal and not some unobtanium, when you apply torque to that shaft, it’s going to flex a little bit as it twists. The amount is flexes increases with the length of…

It’s just more complicated. On a longitudinal (front to back), you have engine, flywheel, clutch, transmission, driveshaft, axle, all in a straight line. Very simple. Whereas with a transverse engine, you would have to have engine, flywheel on the side, that goes to a transmission also on the side, now that has to…

Or in the case of a rotary engine:

It’s becoming less and less of a problem as development advances. Take my car, for example, a 2018 GTI. Older models that had direct injection (2014 model year, for example) did have some carbon issues, so people installed catch cans and emptied them every few oil changes. Now on the 2017 and up versions of the same…

Yeah, people just suck. I just bought a new GTI with an automatic because I am enamored with the shift speed of the DSG, I drive in a LOT of heavy traffic now, and I want to tune my car, and the stock clutches are weak. All good reasons in my opinion, yet I still get shit from people because I didn’t get a manual so…
